Welcome to Popular Kheti
The word popular as you know means well liked or most accepted and
the word kheti means farming. So, the meaning of Popular Kheti becomes most
liked or well accepted farming. Popular Kheti is an international open access
quarterly e-Magazine in the field of Agriculture. The aim of the Magazine is to
provide open access platform to authors to publish their knowledge &
experiences; and to readers, to gain knowledge of popular activities in the
field of agriculture. This mission is led to extend technologies from a region
where they are quite popular to a region where they are not known so that
others can benefit from knowing it. In hope of that it can be done by sharing
our best agricultural technologies to each other, an initiation to publish the
magazine, named 'Popular Kheti' was taken. To make this step a successful one,
everyone linked to agricultural field, whether farmer, researcher, student,
scientist, extension worker, or any other whether authors & readers of
agricultural and its allied sciences are highly encouraged to share their
knowledge & experiences in the field of agriculture. There are many things
to share like, success stories on popular technologies in the field of
agriculture, popular research findings, significant farmer's practices those
gained popularity in our ancient agricultural systems, Indigenous Technology
Knowledge (ITKs) of agriculture, any activity of agriculture being popular
in a particular locality or region or even thought provoking suggestions to
improve our agriculture in changing agro-ecological scenario could benefit the
community. Most importantly there are many practices at farmers’ level attained
by their long lived experience and traditional wisdom which needs to be shared
from one geographical corner to the other for the sake of improvement in our
agriculture.
